What? There's something wrong with my vespa? Not manly enough?

In fact, I may be in Daytona next Friday afternoon. I'll be driving up from Orlando in a car and avoiding Main Street.

Harley FXD $12000.00, Ray Ban Sunglasses $100.00, Stone wash Levis $50.00, showing all the world that you are a shmuck by scooting along without a brain bucket, priceless.

A little sticker on the back of my Shoei X8:

"If you can read this my head has come off, so it might be a good idea to call an ambulance."

Jury is still out on the validity of the Snell rating. One of the major rags did a study which indicated that Snell rated lids might be too stiff and cause other problems.

Despite my sour grapes from too many repairs in the two years I had it, I kind of miss the old Dyna.
